I am gonna include more exercises for legs but just wondering if there's anything you'd change?
I wanna have a body like christian bale in american pyscho/batman.
On a cut at the moment, eating lots of healthy food, oatmeal, protein, fish chicken, fruit, beans, no bad stuff basically!

Been training around 6 months now, 3 months properly, I only recently adjusted my workout though. Lost around 3 stone since I started and feel a lot stronger than before (just not as strong as i expected)
I wanted to do chest twice to make it grow, but in effect i've added way too much, and over working muscles so I'm probably looking at something with more of a compound base. With a few isolation exercises.
So difficult to find what's right :|

Haha. I can see now why it's bad!
So you reckon I should bulk straight away? I really wanna get my stomach flat and lose fat on my chest before I go eating like a horse!
Yep, just made a new routine based on starting strength and made adjustments to cover everything, ill post it when I get on the pc

OP this sport is a marathon, not a sprint. Gaining muscle takes a significant amount of time. With that said, as was stated before you should bulk now and cut off all of the fat later. Fill out with a little muscle first so that when you do cut, you wont be a skinny ******* but youll have a decent amount of muscle and youll look good. There are some great beginner routines on this site and a great amount of knowledge about nutrition as well! Take advantage of it. You'll make the best gains of your life right now in the beginner stage so follow the advice you get on this site to the T and I guarantee you'll be happy in the end! If you have any questions, dont be afraid to ask. Most of the people on this site are super friendly!
I rep back :) (measly reps)

Haha yeah, I'm never in this for quick results, infact, exercising and gym has brought such a great change in my life I don't think I ever want to stop. It's just finding the right path to go down now! Some say cut, other don't XD.
I don't mind being a bit skinny to be honest as I have got a bit of muscle, but atm I'm eating so healthily I might as well keep it up for a few more weeks?
Also I need a squat rack, I workout at home on a bit of budget.
Would this be worth getting or will I outgrow it within say 6 months or something stupid and be better of spending more money?
It's the maxi muscle squat stand (can't post links yet )
thanks all!

you dont need all that accessory work for A you do rows and pullups those will workout your biceps and forearms shrugs should also give your foreamrms some work, i would drop the forearm curls
i would do romanian deadlifts in workout B maybe insteads of deadlifts for like 3x5 (or alternate each week) as well as shoulder press 3x5 instead of lateral raises...
my program i try to run 5 compounds (3 5x5 2 3x5) 2 accessory (2or3x8) and 1 high rep (shrugs calves read delt flyes)Train for Strength, Eat For Size, Rest for Recovery, Repeat for Results

Bro if you've got a long term attitude, forget fat. Forget that it exists. Pretend every kg is a kg of muscle. When you start lifting for real and you get those massive shoulders and quads no one is goina give a chit about the fact that your abs arent 100% visible. They're goina be more concerned that you'll accidently push them over. You look young, so fat is goina melt off you once you got some serious size anyway.
With that said, don't eat stuff that doesnt have any nutritional value.. just munch back on the good foods alllll dayyy long. Hit that 200g a day of protein.My Progress (video & chit) http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=151787483&p=1023897743#post1023897743

Also forget accessories!!11
Get in Squats, Deadlifts, Bench & overhead press. Everything else will fall into place.
Make sure you get deep enough in the squats. No one likes a quarter squatter!My Progress (video & chit) http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=151787483&p=1023897743#post1023897743
